1 | A Pair of Pyjamas

One of the biggest trends to emerge at the Spring Summer '16 shows was nightwear worn in the day-time - specifically, pyjamas worn in place of suiting at the likes of Giorgio Armani and Louis Vuitton. If you're thinking about wearing a pair outside (even if you'll probably only wear them in bed) opt for a set from Sleepy Jones. Smartly cut from stylish fabrics they'll look as good under the covers as they will in the boardroom (maybe).

It might sound tricky to pull off, but a silky bomber jacket is one of this season's key purchases. The best could be found at Louis Vuitton – where artistic director of menswear Kim Jones embroidered his with Far Eastern-inspired prints – and at Dries Van Noten, where appliqued pieces were equally desirable. This slightly simpler navy version from Acne is a good jump off point into the trend.

3 | A Safari Jacket

Defined by four bellows pockets and a skirt at the waist, safari jackets went stellar in the seventies. For Spring Summer '16, the look is less Masai Mara, more Mayfair, with slimmer cuts, muted shades and understated styling abound. This example from Hackett is one of the best of the bunch. Team yours with a cream crew neck and turquoise neckerchief (yes, really) for a natty summer-ready look.

4 | A Pair of Wide Legged Trousers

This trend has been gaining momentum for a while, and it came into its own at the Spring Summer '16 shows. Every brand, bar none, showed a pair of wide-legged trousers in their seasonal collections. This pair, from Armani, is my pick of the bunch. Wear with a pair of white tennis shoes (see number 12) and a swagger.

5 | A single breasted suit (worn with a T-shirt)

Though past seasons have seen a move toward double-breasted styles, for Spring Summer '16 single-breasted suits dominated the runways. The only rule? No shirts (or ties, for that matter) This summer, it's all about wearing your suit with a T-shirt, or a sweater.

7 | A spot of micro cord

Swiss luxury goods brand Bally is the biggest advocate of this trend for Spring Summer '16. They showed 70s-style tan micro cord suits and baggy trousers, which looked fresh and surprisingly modern. Wear a pair of Bally trousers with this navy micro cord blazer from Topman for an easy way to access the trend.

8 | A brightly-coloured cagoule

The best bright cagoules (or should we call them sou'westers?) were shown in sunshine yellow by Kris van Assche at Dior, this double sided cotton jacket from the brand is a slightly easier way to access the trend.

9 | A pair of high quality sneakers

A good pair of flat-soled, bright white sneakers is a Spring Summer '16 essential. Every brand worth its salt has produced a pair. Though you could stick with a classic pair of box-fresh Stan Smith Originals, we'd opt for something slightly bolder, like this pair from Coach – just remember to keep the rest of your outfit simple.
